Everything that the previous version had should be changed, even slightly, to make sure that hackers who get the game will have no chance of cheating, disassembling, etc. That seems like a huge task, but worth the money.

Personally I think they've changed the entire game, not just the code. Made alternate maps and scenarios and the like, which is good because it's given them time to make even better versions of what they had before.
The reason I say this is because the Doom 3 Alpha had no map that was in the final retail version, however some portions of those maps were re-used. It's kinda unfortunate because we got to see some amazing stuff in both leaks.
